• If using crackers instead of bread crumbs, crush them in a food processor until they are finely ground. You will need about 2/3 - 1 cup worth (70 - 120g).
• Additionally if you are using Nori Sheets, crush them in the food processor until you have about 2 Tbsp worth. Personally I opt for sprinkling some Furikake (Rice Seasoning) as it's easier and tastier!
• Make the Crab Cake slurry by whisking all the ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Taste and adjust for seasoning.
• Drain your cans of jackfruit. Then roughly chop it (or shred by hand) and combine with crab cake slurry with clean hands.

  Next add in the breadcrumbs / crushed crackers and combine with clean hands. Start with 2/3 cup and add more as needed until you can easily form a crab cake patty.

  Taste and adjust for seasoning once again!
• To form your crab cake patties, you can either do so by hand, or you can use a cookie cutter to form them if you like! Simply add a cookie cutter to a piece of parchment paper or burger patty paper, and press down with your fingers to form a patty. I recommend using about 3.5 oz (100g) per patty.

  Once all patties are formed, add them to a parchment paper lined baking sheet, and refrigerate to firm up.

  If you want to coat them in breadcrumbs / crushed crackers, freeze them for about 30 minutes. Then coat them in the crackers before frying.
• Heat up about 1/2 inch of oil in a non-stick skillet to 350 F / 175 C
• Fry your crab cakes until golden brown on both sides. Carefully flip them so you don't splash hot oil, I like to use two spatulas to flip them slowly. Once they are golden brown, let them rest on a wire rack.

For Crab Cake Sandwiches

• If making sliders or sandwiches, toast your buns, then dress with some lettuce, a crab cake, a liberal slathering of tartar sauce and dig in!

  Depending on the size of your buns, I recommend using a 3.5 oz crab cake for a smaller bun, and 5 oz for a larger bun.

AIR FRY OPTION

• I've never air fried these except to reheat them, but I don't see why this wouldn't work. I would line my air fryer with some parchment paper that I've poked a decent amount of holes in. Then spray the parchment paper and crab cakes with cooking spray. Cook 'em at 400 F for 5 minutes. Then flip and repeat until browned to your liking!
